[bassoonist]

Anyone got the bassoon concerto in c major by vanhal?

I don't have time to do any really deep digging right now, but the oldest version listed on WorldCat is 1964 Simrock, edited by Schwamberger. The others are from the 1970s and 1990s. There is an off chance that one of the German libraries has already scanned the original manuscript, but most likely the manuscript would have to be requested if you can find what library it is in. You most probably would also have to pay for the scan.

Also bear in mind that a modern piano reduction would be under copyright, unless the person who did it died more than 70 (Europe) or 95 (US) years ago.
